Kids Will Love This Wormy Cupcakes Recipe

It's that time of year again when everything becomes spooky and there's a need for creepy takes on common foods! These wormy cupcakes will definitely fit the bill for you this year. Kids especially will love these, since they're just creepy enough to work for Halloween without being too off-putting or scary.

And, of course, what kid doesn't love chocolate cupcakes? There are only a handful of ingredients needed for this recipe, so you won't have to extend your budget to afford them. Plus, these cupcakes can be made in just three simple steps.

If your children are old enough, have them give you a hand with making these! They'll definitely be excited to help you with this baking project. They'll especially love it if they can be the ones to stick the gummy worms to the dirt. Kids love it whenever they're allowed to have fun with their food.

These cupcakes can work as a recipe for just your family, a party, or for a school function. Make sure to increase the recipe as needed if you'll be feeding a lot of people. It is rather necessary to use chocolate cake and chocolate cookie crumbs for this recipe, since otherwise you won't get the “worms coming out of the dirt” look.
